We had a great time with friends this weekend, bouncing from one event to another!
Friday night we were able to secure a last minute babysitter and Daniel and I spent a rare night just the two of us out for dinner and a movie at the downtown cinema. It was great fun eating pizza, having a beer, and watching a silly movie (Blockers). Made me appreciate that God gave me a little boy, as the movie is centered around parents of high school girls!
Saturday morning began with a blast of a bowling birthday party for our friend, Jack.
It was a Paw Patrol themed party....Potatoes current obsession!
The cupcakes were a huge hit!
On Sunday morning, Potatoes had an electric blue filled diaper...I was terrified he had eaten paint. Luckily Daniel remembered the color cupcake he had chosen at Jack's party!
Potatoes and Jack can usually be found jousting at the trampoline park. They were more subdued for the bowling party, and everyone seemed to really have a blast.
Such cute cookies by one of our fellow spouses, Melissa Hedrick! Seriously, hers are not only the most beautiful cookies, but they are seriously delicious.
We snuck in some pool fun before brunch on Sunday. Daniel always likes to cool off in the pool after a run, and Potatoes always has to join in! Sometimes a bathing suit just takes too long.

After their quick swim, we walked over to the yacht club and met up with the Johnson family.
I cannot believe how big Baby Ellis has gotten! He was such a little guy and now he's such a chunk!
Aabett also amazes me with how beautiful and fit she looks!
What a cool crew they have.
Sunday afternoon we headed out again for a barbecue to welcome Davis home and celebrate having the whole Ulm crew in the panhandle and to wish Shelby a happy birthday!
The Ulms have been living in Clovis, so we are always glad when they come back to visit.
All the toddlers (so many toddlers) were in awe of the candles on the cookie cake.
With a houseful of toddlers and a storm thundering on and off outside, it was a great time catching up with friends and eating too much food.
Got a quick shot with this handsome guy before we headed home.
Once home, we snuggled on the couch for a few scenes of Potatoes's favorite movie- Jurassic Park Lost World. Should be scary, right? Nope, he asks for it all day every day. He builds a dinosaur shooter out of his Action Stackers and waits in anticipation for the dinosaurs to appear on screen. He loves to shoot the T-Rex's and the Raptors, but he won't shoot his favorite, the Triceratops, because, "that's my friend."
In the midst of all of our weekend family time, I squeezed showing waterfront property and a few showings in beautiful Niceville. I love the balancing act that is my life!
We are struggling a bit with Zoey, who seems to be suffering more severely from her separation anxiety lately. She chewed the base board by the door during one of our outings this weekend, something she has never done before. We are exploring options as to how to help ease her stress level. We love our puppy princess, and want her to be calm, and not to tear up our home!
She's always at ease when her crew is together
